How to Add Money to an Inmate's Commissary (Trust Fund) at Pendleton
A Trust Fund deposit puts money into an incarcerated person's account at Pendleton. They can use it like cash to buy items through commissary - snacks, hygiene products, and other basics the facility allows.
- Create a ConnectNetwork account - once your account is set up, you’ll be able to make Trust Fund deposits whenever you need to.
- Select Pendleton and choose the inmate - add the facility and the person you’re sending money to, so deposits go to the right Trust Fund account.
- Choose your deposit amount - deposit amounts vary, but the most common denominations are between $10 and $100.
Tip: Once you’ve created your ConnectNetwork account and selected Pendleton and the inmate, you can deposit money into their Trust Fund at any time.
Deposit Methods
- ✓ ConnectNetwork website (24/7)
- ✓ ConnectNetwork mobile app (24/7)
- ✓ Toll-free phone system (24/7)
- ✓ Kiosk (24/7)
Need the money to arrive fast? Use an automated option: the website, mobile app, toll-free phone, or a kiosk. These deposits are transmitted to the facility within one business day. Mailed deposits take longer. GTL processes them the next business day after they arrive - so factor in delivery time before processing even begins.
Note: If you deposit through the automated phone system, you may need Pendleton’s “Site ID.” You can find the Site ID on the facility’s page.
Quick transmission doesn't always mean instant access. When the money actually becomes available depends on facility policy. If you're timing a deposit around commissary day, plan accordingly. Fees vary by facility. To see the Trust Fund deposit fees for Pendleton, sign in to your ConnectNetwork account and review the fee details before submitting your payment.
Important: Trust Fund deposits are final - no refunds are issued. Double-check the facility and inmate selection before you hit submit.
Practical Tips
- ✓ If you’re depositing by phone, look up Pendleton’s Site ID on the facility’s page before you call.
- ✓ Plan for possible facility policy delays - fund availability is subject to the facility’s rules, even after the deposit is sent.
